Bruno Gadenne

Exploring and painting the natural world

‘’ Bruno Gadenne (b. 1990) is a globe-trotter, a traveller.

. He’s driven by a strong desire to experiment and verify the beauty of the world. The one of the primordial landscapes, the jungle, the primary forest and other remote lands. A contemporary romantic attitude through which he collects, in notebooks and in his memory, reminiscences and ‘’dreamings of a solitary wanderer’’ that he brings back to the studio.
These landscapes, which the painter’s body has crossed, are transcribed on the canvas from pictures the artist took himself and then digitally transformed.
The image processing creates a subtle distorsion of the light, a strange feeling allied to a still intact wonderment. ‘’
Juliette Fontaine, director of the Centre d’Art Plastiques d’Aubervilliers, Les assises du Monde
